Description: Tiny 460 mintage. Great looking Civil War artifact. Strong claims to PR62 ($1,320 recent APR's in that grade! And $1,450 CU!). $1,100 PCGS Price Guide as of this posting; jumps to $1,450 for PR62, which this choice smoothie could easily regrade. 🔴 90% BUYBACK GUARANTEE: Within three years from payment, we will repurchase this choice coin for at least 90% of the purchase price, less Ebay fees, postage, and sales tax (if any). Coin and holder must be undamaged. Original buyer only. 🔴 GUARANTEED LOWEST PRICE: We will beat any other Ebayer's price by 25% of the difference. Compared coins must be identically certified, aesthetically similar, and in stock. Valid at time of purchase only. Also applies to most of our other certified items. TRADE SECRET: Easily PR66 CAMEO by third-tier slab and raw standards, PR67 DEEP CAMEO after the usual doctoring. Stick with NGC and PCGS, and ignore excuses from third-tier sellers (ask them if they will buy back for 90% less seller's fees as we will for this conservatively graded coin. Or even 10%). Very few and light marks for PR61. Boldly struck. Deep toning transforms into excellent eye appeal under a grader's light, replete with deeply mirrored fields. Conservatively graded. Vastly undervalued Civil War artifact. Non doctored, unlike many Seated proofs in "problem free" PCGS slabs. Could easily upgrade as is, even more so after professional conservation but we prefer originality over profit. Many PCGS PR61's are really just glorified PR58's. But this beautiful, original NGC PR61 is actually PR62 by recent PCGS standards. Our loss is your gain. Just 460 minted, third lowest proof from 1859 to today! Many tallied in the population reports are resubmissions or crossovers of the same coins. After deducting Ebay's regular fee, Ebay's promotion fee, and insured Priority postage we will net a whopping 7% profit. We sell interesting, undervalued Civil War artifacts like this to pass along the collecting fun, certainly not to get rich! Many dealers heavily market BILLION-mintage modern coins, which creates artificial demand, grossly inflated prices, and GIGANTIC profits. But they ignore this 460-mintage Civil War artifact because it is far too rare to promote and from which to profit, so demand and thus prices stay absurdly low. Seriously, $10,500 PCGS Price Guide for a 5.4 BILLION-mintage 1975 penny in two grades below MS70? And $10,000 for a "rare" 4.5 BILLION-mintage 1975-D cent in the same imperfect grade? We would not pay $5 for either. But PCGS Price Guide is just $1,100 for this 460-mintage Civil War jewel? Most modern coins can be bought at or near face value, melt value, or Mint-issue price; placed in a $4 plastic slab (PCGS bulk rate); and sold for hundreds or even thousands of dollars. But try doing that with with this 460-mintage piece of Civil War history. We deal only in truly rare coins, not fabricated illusions designed to make coin dealers rich. Ask your modern coin dealer if he will buy back for 90% less seller's fees, as we will for this rare coin. Or even 1%. Undervalued Civil War rarity that would surely be the centerpiece of many a coin collection. Impress your friends and even your mother-in-law. AVOID RAW COINS!!!! We know of many dealers who have become fabulously wealthy by grossly over grading choice rarities like this. Stick with NGC and PCGS, and ignore excuses from third-tier coin sellers (ask them if they will buy back for 90% less selling fees, as we will for this conservatively described beauty. Or even 10%). As with many other truly rare issues, PCGS Price Guide (PPG) is a joke. PPG values this 460-mintage rarity at just $1,100 yet a 5.4 BILLION-mintage 1975 penny at $10,500 in two grades below MS70 (we would not pay $5 for it). These diametrically contradicting PPG valuations suggest that PCGS is making most of its profit from certifying extremely common modern junk yet earning almost nothing from slabbing truly rare coins, so they trash the values of the latter to give credibility to their vast overpricing of the former. Just for fun, ask your dealer of modern junk if he will buy back for 90% less selling fees, as we will for this 460-mintage key date proof. Or even 1%. And note that PPG does not even reveal its mysterious formula for determining values. Gee, I wonder why!
